The hat trick of treats for the Bills victory Monday- brownie cookie sandwiches. These start with a brownie mix, also use some hot fudge. And the filling is a basic buttercream.
Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. Also, no need to chill the dough.

1 brownie mix
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
5 tbs water
1/4 ,cup hot fudge (room temp)
1 cup chocolate chips
Directions – in a bowl, combine brownie mix, flour, oil, egg and water. Blend in hot fudge. Fold in chips. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Scoop out 2 tbs dough. Line cookie sheet with nonstick baking liners. Stagger on sheet. Bake 9 to 11 minutes, no longer. Cool completely.

1/2 cup butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbs heavy cream
In a bowl, blend powdered sugar and butter well. Add vanilla and heavy cream. Spoon between 2 cookies. Store in covered container.
I was looking to use up some hot cocoa so in addition to making brownies, I made these cookies. I didn’t have time to chill the dough, so they spread a lot. Because of that, I made them into sandwiches.
Scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. Also, I recommend chilling this dough for a few hours.
Ingredients list
1/2 cup crisco
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup hot cocoa
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups flour
1 tbs cornstarch
10 oreos, crushed
1 cup milk chocolate chips
(You can add marshmallow bits too if you want)
Directions – in a bowl, cream crisco, sugar and brown sugar. Add egg ans vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients. Fold in chips and oreos. Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough. Chill a few hours. Line a sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stagger cookies on sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely. Cut each in half.
Filling ingredients
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup marshmallow fluff
2 cups powdered sugar
Milk or heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla
Directions – in a bowl, blend together butter and fluff. Slowly mix in powdered sugar. Add enough milk or cream to get the consistency you want. Add vanilla. Spread between 2 cookies like this
My favorite of all the sports postseason, is the nhl. The level of excitement in the arenas and adrenaline from the crowds, plus the stress of overtime, when if your team is not playing, can not be beat. l love football, but playoff hockey is another animal.
What better way to celebrate than with cookies that look like pucks! So I made these and filled them with cookie dough filling. You could also do peanut butter or vanilla or chocolate.
A reminder to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. No need to chill this dough. It doesn’t spread too badly. Also, preheat your oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes so it cycles to the right temp.

Why have a brownie or a cookie when you can have both?
I was looking to whip up something for work tomorrow, as Rob, Gracie and I watch Islanders-Bruins game 2 and Maple Leafs-Canadiens game 7. So I settled on this treat. Quite simply put, are a chocolate chip cookie “sandwich” with a filling of a brownie. I have seen different versions of this, using reese’s peanut butter cups, mallo cups and brownies as the filling. I went with brownies this time. Although I am partial to puffy cookies probably a flatter cookie wouls be a better option next time. You can use any cookie and brownie recipe you want. I actually put a ganache on the brownies, thinking it might help the cookies stay on the brownie, but I think I just made it messier!
Couple of notes -remember to scoop your flour from you container into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes to get the right temp. And make the cookie dough as your brownies bake bc they both are baked at 350.
Brownies ingredients
3/4 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 yolk
1 tsp chocolate extract
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbs water
1 cup chocolate chips (opt)
Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Line an 8×8 pan with tin foil and spray with baking spray. Combine butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add egg, yolk and chocolate extract. Mix in baking cocoa, salt and flour. Add chips. Spread into pan evenly (mixture is thick). Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center cones out with a few moist crumbs. Cool completely. Cut into 2 inch squares. Set aside.
